MNETED STATE PATENT BURNER.

Application filed July 25, 1921. Serial No. 487,406.

To all whom it may] concern Be it known that I, HENRY ZIEBOLD, Sr., a citizen of the United States, residing at VOOdlaWn, in the county of Hamilton and State of Ohio, have invented new and useful Improvements in Burners, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to a burner for burning oils of various kinds, the general object of the invention being to provide a burner which will gasify the oil before it reaches the jet or nozzle so that the burner can be used with low grades of oil.

Another object of the invention is to make the burner of a few number of parte and which are so arranged that the burner can be manufactured to sell at low cost and will not be liable to get out of order.

This invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, to be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and specifically pointed out in the appended claims.

Tn describing my invention in detail, ref erence will be had to the accompanying drawings wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which Figure l is a plan view of the invention.

Figure 2 is a section on line 2-2 of Figure l.

Figure 3 is a side view.

Figure t is a section on line 4 4- of F igure 2.

In these views l indicates a base which is formed with the openings 2 in its side walls and the openings 2 in its top. A member 8 is supported at the center of the base by the bolt 4 which holds the member in spaced relation to the base. Each end of the member is provided with a socket 5, the outer part of which is screw threaded to receive the screw threaded end of the burner pipe 6. tach of these burner pipes is of U-shape with the limb which is connected with memeber 3 of greater length than the upper limb. This upper limb is provided with the outlet hole or jet 7 which is formed in the under side of the limb and this hole is closed by a screw threaded cap 8. A pair of feed pipes 9 pass through openings in one end of the base and up through openings in the top of the base and are so connected with the member 3 that they communicate with the socle ets 5. These pipes are connected by the union l0 with a source of supply and the flow of oil through each pipe is controlled by a valve ll.

A cup-shaped member l2 is placed under each burner pipe and is supported by the bolt 13 and the sleeve lat from the base. Each member may be provided with a lin ing 15 of asbestos or the like. These members are so arranged that they will receive the oil dropping through port 7 so that they will act as initial gasifying means as well as deflectors, as hereinafter described. A. plate 16 of the shape shown in Figure l has its central part secured to member 3 by the screws 17, the circular ends of said plate being arranged under the extremities of the upper arm of the burner pipes. This plate is shown on each side of its center and is so arranged that the oil dropping through port 9 will strike the outer part of the circular end and it will drip oft this end into the cup-shaped member l2. When this cup-shaped member is filled or partly iilled the valve is closed and the oil ignited. The heat from this burning oil will gasify the oil in the burner pipe and as soon as this gas starts to flow through the port 7 it will be ignited and then the valve may be opened to provide a constant supply of oil to the burner tube. The expansion of the created gases in the burner pipe will cause the gas to pass through the vent under pressure so that the ignition of this gas will produce an intense heat. The burning gas will cause intense heat and the parts of the plate 16 and the members l2 will' act as deflectors for insuring the heat striking all parts 0f the burner tubes and thus gasify the oil therein. Both burner tubes can be used at the same time or only one, as desired and according to the amount of heat required.

The device may be placed in stoves, furnaces and the like.

The openings 2 and 2 insure plenty of air reaching the burners for supporting combustion.

It is thought from the foregoing description that the advantages and novel features of my invention will be readily apparent.

T desire it to be understood that I may make changes in the construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts7 provided that such changes fall Within the scope of the appended claims.

YWhat I claim is l. An oil burner comprising a base, a member supported on said base in vertically spaced relation thereto and presenting spaced oppositely disposed sockets, a fuel supply pipe leading to each socket, a burner pipe connected with each socket and presenting horizontally disposed upper and lower elements, the former of which has a jet-opening, a priming cup mounted on the base beneath the lower element of each burner pipe and in line with the jet-opening oi' the upper element, and a deflector plate mounted on the said socket member and having' lateral extensions overlying the said lower elen'ients of the burner pipes and presenting drip-deflecting portions inclined with respect to the said priming cups over which they partly extend.

2. An oil burner comprising a base, a socket bearing member, means for detachably supporting the said member on the said base in vertically spaced relation thereto, a burner pipe having one end detachably connected with the socket of the said member, a fuel supply pipe connected to the said afllx my signa- HENRY ZiEBoLD.
